LONG BEACH, Calif. (AP) - California State University says it will stop accepting nearly all student applications for the spring 2010 term to help offset deep budget cuts to the 23-campus system.

CSU officials said Thursday that campuses on the quarter system have stopped accepting applications for the 2010 winter term.

CSU, which has about 450,000 students, typically admits more than 35,000 freshmen, undergraduate transfer and graduate students during the spring term.

The decision to close spring admissions is part of its overall strategy to reduce student enrollment to cope with a 20 percent reduction in state funding.

The CSU Board of Trustees is expected to vote on an overall plan to address a nearly $600 million budget shortfall when it meets in two weeks.
